"After This...Champange."

Boy George is cleaning up his act. The 45-year-old singer, born George O'Dowd, was ordered to work for the department after pleading guilty in March to falsely reporting a burglary at his lower Manhattan apartment. The officers who responded found cocaine instead.

In June, a judge issued a warrant for his arrest after Boy George initially failed to complete the requirements of his plea deal. When he appeared in court 10 days later, the judge called off the warrant but warned the singer he could not escape his community service commitment.

After five days pushing a broom, Boy George said it was time for a taste of the good life.
